Elektron Monomachine SFX60+ MKII - Song Mode

It has been a while since I turned on my Elektron Monomachine. I got surprised when I discovered that there was an almost finished track in there already so here it is. All effects and sounds are from the Monomachine and it was recorded on an UHER 4200 Report Stereo IC tape recorder.
💾I have uploaded a zip containing a sysex which includes all kits, patterns and the song. It can be downloaded here: www.tiltshiftga... .

Please don't ask me how to transfer a sysex file into a Monomachine, read the manual instead.

This is an amazing example how powerful the monomachine can be in the right hands

[@dfreeman120]

100% stellar work

[@eyesintheskies]

So the mono machine can be tamed! 👌

[@thomasboesgaard]

Amazing songwriting. And amazing that this little machine can actually do this all with only six tracks.

[@sub-jec-tiv]

Beautiful. Wanna hear this on a big system outside. (Also… Wish my Monomachine hadn’t died 😓)

[@izzymonkey]

What a lovely piece of music! This clever instrument continues to shine after all this time. I 💙 how elektron brought so much unique color + joy with the original "trinity".

[@toslinked]

oh yeah

[@Silverfishmusic]

This is masterful.

[@milDelux]

Damn it I love this, again

[@leecheneler6202]

such a great vibe to this track! a really great composition!

[@Duskmos]

Great track! Glad you re-discovered it!

[@TheTrackdriver]

Thank you🙂

[@vanderson_pl]

great Monomachine track, wow... respect bro 👏👏👏

[@pierremarty5056]

Best piece of music I heard on this machine on the internet :) Would love to know how you're doing the side chain effect on the top chords

[@TheTrackdriver]

Thank you😀 The side chain effect is a ramp up LFO controlling the volume.

[@JornLavoll]

This is so good!

[@kimabrams97]

Gorgeous

[@atimchak]

This is absolutely brilliant. And it looks like you're only using 5 tracks! Sick tape machine too - would love to hear the uncompressed youtube version of the tape play back. Time to sit down and actually learn the song mode on my MnM because this just shines. Excellent work and thanks for sharing!

[@TheTrackdriver]

Yes, five tracks for the instruments and the sixth track for the reverb🙂 However, you can have (kind of) more instruments than one on the same track with p-locks.

[@pigsfm]

beautiful

[@AmigerFromPast]

You are master of MM

[@TheTrackdriver]

Thank you!🙂

[@J-Hz]

This is good. Was monomachine on bassline duties too? Has a very SH101 sound to it

[@TheTrackdriver]

Yes, everything you hear comes from the Monomachine - in one take so no multitracking or overdubs😊

[@soupforare]

delight

[@DanizTV]

MM + tape = b0000000000000000000m

[@CoincoinBleu]

Any chance you could share the project file for this track? I'm really curious to see how you did this. It is indeed the best track made on the MnM I've seen, let alone standalone!

[@TheTrackdriver]

There is a chance😊

[@CoincoinBleu]

@@TheTrackdriver how could we make this happen? That would be amazing! :-)

[@TheTrackdriver]

@@CoincoinBleu When I have the time I will make a .syx and then upload it to my storage online and post the download link here.

[@CoincoinBleu]

@@TheTrackdriver Thanks! I'll be checking the notifications waiting for that moment :-)

[@TheTrackdriver]

@@CoincoinBleu The sysex is uploaded now😊. The link is in the description and in the pinned comment.

[@sweeney37]

Buy an sh4d

[@TheTrackdriver]

Nah, I like the challenge with this machine😀

[@sweeney37]

@@TheTrackdriver I don't like the price

[@misery4515]

A few years ago they were in the $700-$800 range. The box was ahead of it’s time IMO, a LOT of people hated the overtly digital nature of it’s sound when it was in production. Not me though, have a mkl that I got when it came out and a mkII I got when they were discontinued so I would have a back up
